I looked at this but couldn't get excited about using it.  There were
some obvious bugs ("if (!recoveryStopsHere)"?) but the real problem is
that I think we're going to end up reworking the interaction between
recoveryPausesHere and the recoveryStopsHere stanza quite a bit.
In particular, we should expect that we're going to need to respond
to a changed recovery target after any pause.  So placing a call of
recoveryPausesHere down at the loop bottom where the action is already
predetermined seems like the wrong thing.  I'm not entirely sure what
a clean design would look like, but that's not it.  I'll leave it to
Simon to think about what we want to do there next.
